Villagers don't close doors that have been opened by a player or redstone

Still having this problem and all my villagers are getting killed. Worked so hard on this village and this bug ruins it. Please help!

I've had this problem as well. My village was decimated. My village went from over a dozen adults and numerous kids to just three adults. I had to babysit them for a few days until they started spawning. Solved the problem by surrounding the village area with a cobblestone wall, making sure parts were high enough on the uneven terrain so nothing could jump over them, then torchlit the heck out of the whole area. Set up a couple of iron golems (the earlier ones having also been killed in the update, or something) to patrol the village, and it is once again thriving. I now have two clerics, two cartographers, two librarians, a host of farmer types, some whiteshirted butchers and unshirted smith-types, not to mention lots of ugly babies with beards.

Yes I have had this problem on my Apple iPad

This is a very serious problem. This also happens in 1.1.0.55.

I don't know it this is somehow related, but it used to be you could put single doors on backwards, or flush against the right side (from the inside) of the doorway and zombies wouldn't bang on your door any more, because the door was actually closed when it was flush against the right doorway wall, leaving the doorway itself clear and open, and when the doorway was blocked by the door, the door was technically open, so the zombies wouldn't bang on an "open door".

I only discovered this trick a week before the update, and it worked in keeping the zombies from banging on the doors. However, I never used this in villages, because I wanted the villagers to be able to close the doors behind them.

Since the 1.1 update, this trick no longer works, and the zombies bang on the doors no matter what side the door is hinged on.

Villagers haven't been closing any doors in my survival mode game regardless of whether open or closed or how many player encounters, since the latest update - gear VR edition on Samsung s7 edge

Same. Villagers are opening but ot closing. Lucky I have it on Peaceful Mode!

I've been putting pressure plates inside each door. It helps but if I could figure out how to keep the numbskulls from standing on them it would work! Putting a block on each side of the pressure plate helps a little more. In the meantime I rush to bed the minute the sun sets every night to keep zombies from spawning. Praying for a fix SOON.

Is this problem ever going to be addressed?
It's been going on for months. I've tried everything I can think of and nothing works! The only way to keep my villagers alive without babysitting them is to play in peaceful. That's not how we love to play. Please fix this asap!

This is so annoying! Every time you update the game, it's to add some bogus texture pack that I don't want. Instead of fixing bugs, YOU ADD THEM INTO THE GAME. I cant believe that a DOOR is so hard to program!

I'm also really disappointed. It seems that the acquisition by M$ now needs to pay off, they're trying to sqeeze the last cent out of the game with extra contents, instead of fixing the bugs which chase away the players...

They continually leave doors open in the Win10 PC server. This allows zombies to enter and kill the villagers. So in a very short time, all your villagers are gone.

This issue has been recognised. But please note that the developers are extremely busy with this better together update and more important bug fixes.

Just adding that this happened to me as well... and an extinction event occurred shortly after as zombies rampaged my village.

Keep up the good (and hard) work Mojang.

Xbox - Beta version.

its not fun coming back to your village and there all dead or zombies. i was hoping the better together patch would also fix this but nope. Hard to have cool villages and citys without a population. i play on Windows 10 version.

@Ovyxo: The "better together" update is out now, as far as I know... Any progress here?

Still happening in 1.5.0.7. But if you close the door, the villager will not forget close the door. But if you leave the door open, then it will also leave the door open too. This happens on my Android device

Yeah, this sometimes happen to me on windows 10 as well

Still happening in 1.5.0.10

Thank you, @Mega_Spud !!!!😃👍

minecraft bedrock version 1.10.0.3 beta too...

Current pushed v1.10 on windows 10 has this. The doors stay open when the villagers close them regardless of if the player opens them or not.

This has caused me to lose many villagers to zombies. I don’t feel like I should have to completely pen up my villagers to keep them safe at night. I like the lively village feel, and this is even more important with the village and pillage updates with the new villagers.

Fixed in 1.11 beta (I think it was 1.11.0.4 or 1.11.0.5, I don't remember)

Bedrock 1.10.0 now has this. Villager opens door, ldoes not close door. Was not broken before 1.10.0 update. Please fix. All villagers are being killed. Can't wait for this to stay broken when village pillagers show up.

I play on Xbox one and starting with 1.10.0 update villagers 90% of the time don’t close doors when entering or leaving. I will go around village and shut every door. Come back and almost all will be open. Some houses with be full of zombie villagers. I guess I will wall a few up untill bug is fixed.

I play on Nintendo Switch and noted this starting with the 1.10.0 update as well. I close the doors in a village and add doors to buildings that don't have them, villagers go in but don't close them. Then most of them die overnight even though I try hard to save them all. 

I'm playing on Nintendo Switch Ver. 1.11.4 and I noticed that this issue is worst.
